" Typical Sidney Sheldon's style of writing. Unpredictable. You never know how's the ending like until the last few pages! I can't let go of this book even though it was it was burning hot which is not an ideal time to read but still :D

" For once the title made sense and followed the story line. I think the history behind the family was wonderfully developed and quite fascinating to read. The story flowed and came to reasonable conclusion although I thought perhaps it was wrapped up rather quickly.

" Soap opera-y. Not as much fun as a couple of Sheldon's other works.
"

Miyuki | 1/29/2011

" It's ok, but it would be better if Sheldon made a little bit harder for a reader to guess who's "the bad guy". For example, I realized it in first 30 pages. Also, not very original, but since we're talking about Sheldon, that's quite usual and not necessarily to mention.

" I loved Sidney Sheldon in high school (even before I realized he was involved with "I Dream of Jeannie."). The stories move quickly and were just smutty enough to make a teenager feel decadent.
